Wilderness holidays in SpitsbergenTours & holidays in 2018 & 2019

Far beyond the Arctic Circle, this archipelago is the stuff of icy legend. Walrus and auks, reindeer and bearded seals, foxes and over 2000 polar bears inhabit the snowy shores and mountains, surrounded much of the year by pack ice. Eerie, white beluga whales bob offshore. Spitsbergen holidays showcase glaciers and fjords as well as the chance to trek across flowering, windswept tundra, and visit the polar research station.
